Simon seems to be doing really well with mostly greens, although he almost always has at least one blue every day. I was wondering if I should hold at this skinny .25 dose or go down to barely anything to see how he does? If I do decrease his dose, what exactly do I give him and how does it look on the syringe? I don't want to mess his great progress up with a decrease too soon, so I would love to hear some advice from other people. I have been feeding him 6 small meals a day at AMPS, +6, +8, PMPS, +4, and +8. Thanks for your help!

Simon is doing great today with all P's in place.

Re: 1/30 Simon AMPS 87 +7 74 Dose question

Libby, thanks for the picture of the .1 dose. I think I may have actually been doing a skinny, skinny .25 because the .1 doesn't look that much different from what I have been doing. When it gets down to those real small numbers, it is so hard to be consistent with the dose because it is hard to see. I am defintely going to get the magnifying glass out. I am nervous to take it down a little bit because I am so afraid it is going to fail. But without trying, I'll never know. I appreciate any other thoughts and advice from everyone.

Good luck Georgia.

When we went down to the .10 I read through the microdosing links in the stickies and realized how bad our syringes were. We are using BD syringes. A lot of them have plungers that go down below the 0 mark. I'm chucking a lot of syringes - only using the ones that go down to the start of the zero line not below. And there are a lot of bad syringes. So just a heads up. If I didn't read this our dosing would have been ALL over the place.

Simons looking so awesome!

I did the same thing when Lucy was on 0.1 units. I really think I just had a bad box of syringes, because even before that I made a habit of looking at the syringe before loading it up and I don't remember that many bad ones (I was using ReliOn). When she got down to 0.1, though, I was throwing away probably 3 out of every 5 syringes.

:RAHCAT GO SIMON GO!!! :RAHCAT

Good luck with the reduction! You are right, you never know unless you try.

@Libby- thank you for posting the link to the photos. I was looking for those the other night and could not find them to save my life! Bookmarked now. :mrgreen:

Thanks, guys for your advice. Karrie, thanks for giving me the heads up on the syringes. I didn't realize that some are different from others in the same batch. I will definitely make sure I am only using the ones that stop at the zero line.

Hi guys! I am so late in paying you a visit. What a great day, and days prior, for Simon. Congrats and good luck with the dosecrease! :-D :-D :-D I love visiting this condo - everything is always so green!

Very interesting on the syringes - it's something one never pays attention too until you get to these microdoses. Not that we are even close to that, but i sure will be looking now.
